Fires, by Mai Phuong Duong

It seems easy to make an `interesting’ macro photograph as the subject is usually something hardly observed by our naked eyes. However, creating a macro shot that keeps viewer’s eyes on it for some moments is rather difficult. In a close-up shot, I often look for a good subject to be in focus, and equally important, search for an interesting background to complete the frame. I guess this shot is one good example of those.
